The next step in the evolution of smartphones could very well be foldable devices. Major players in the smartphone industry like Apple, Microsoft, and LG, patented their foldable designs since many years ago, but none had the courage to start mass production.
But that might change by the end of this year, as Samsung is expected to make the first move in this unexplored territory. Sources from Taiwan’s handset supply chain claim Samsung is already working on its first foldable smartphone and will begin small production of the device in Q4 2017.
